Vertis North is a mixed-used development in Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines.

History

Vertis North is a joint project by private firm Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) and state-agency National Housing Authority (Philippines) (NHA). The NHA is responsible for relocating settlers living in the area.[2] The Vertis North project was launched in 2012.[3]

In October 2015, Bloomberry Resorts Corp. purchased a 15.7-hectare property from the National Housing Authority (NHA) for P1.98 billion.[4] It will be developed into a casino called Solaire Resort North and will feature a hotel tower with up to 550 rooms and a gaming area with up to 200 gaming tables and as many as 3,000 slot machines. [5]

The first phase of the project which includes the Ayala Malls Vertis North shopping mall, the Seda Vertis North hotel, and residential projects was launched in 2017.[2]
